I got a spam mail almost 2 months ago from an unknown user with an unusual title, claiming they know my password. (i checked, im not sure if i had used that password for any other sites, the last i changed my pass for gmail was 2018).
They informed me they had seen me visit an adult website and has recorded the same, blackmailing me for money in exchange for not sending it to all my contacts.
I installed an antivirus then, deleted all my saved info in google and changed all my passwords, and moved on. i did not reply to them.
one and a half months have gone by, but i noticed, they resent the same mail with a different email id, after a month of the first email. That too went to my spam.
should i ignore this and go by my day, seeing as they havent done anything to me till now other than send two mails?
would they be able to access my contacts so easy?
PS - to make it clear they dont have the right password.
